Fafsa school list question

<p>If we get the Fafsa completed early do we just include the schools where she has already submitted apps? Can we add others as they are completed (we will not be over the number limit)? Or is it OK to include schools where apps are not complete? Even one that she is debating still and might not complete the application? Don’t want to delay the Fafsa for her first choice while we wait on her completing the others.</p>

<p>Didn’t know there was a number limit. I think you can put down as many as you want. You just have to replace the schools that have received the report with ones that have not. When you do that, you have to make sure that the school has already received the report before you “correct” the school name and code to another school. You can do up to 6 each time to send it through, but there is no limit as how many times you can replace the school names and codes to send to more schools. </p>

<p>To answer your question directly, you can send the FAFSA to all of the schools that she is thinking of applying, not just where the app has been sent. And it’ll be easier doing it that way because it will be done. Unless she has more than 6 schools, in which case, you need to verify that the first batch of schools did receive the FAFSA info by calling financial aid offices before you resubmit the FAFSA replacing the first batch of schools with a new batch.</p>

<p>Thank you cptofthehouse - that is exctly what I wanted to know. I kind of understand the Fafsa process but it is the 1st time for us so there is always one more thing that I find I don’t know about. I meant the 6 at a time limit. We will go ahead and just send it to the schools she is thinking of. I don’t know how people cope with numerous applications - the 3 she is doing is quite enough.</p>
